Walmart Gives 50,000 Workers Generative AI App (1)
Walmart's making waves with its latest announcement: a brand-new AI app for its 50,000 non-store employees. Named "My Assistant," this app is all about helping with tasks, from skimming those never-ending docs to crafting fresh content, with the app having trained on all Walmart data.

Remember how we just discussed companies mining their own data for insights? Walmart is one of the most valuable companies in the world, known for their operational excellence, but not necessarily their pioneering in technological innovation. So this was a bit surprising, but goes to show you how valuable they see AI is in creating efficiencies.
And guess what? It's part of the "Me@Campus" app and works on both your laptop and phone. Walmart's big brains, Donna Morris and Cheryl Ainoa, dropped the insight on LinkedIn, saying the app's all about blending human touch with tech magic. Walmart's got plans to expand the app's features, even hinting at some customer perks. Hats off to Bentonville for being a leader in the sector!
